When it comes to the decor and color of hotel suites, turns out men may be pickier than female guests.

That's according to an award-winning study out of the University of South Florida, which set out to determine what guests want when it comes to room design.

And though it could be assumed that women would be the fussier hotel guests, researchers found that men were finickier when it came to room decor.

For their study, researchers created 3D computer models of the same guest room at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Sarasota, altering the room color and furnishings.

Respondents were asked to rate the rooms and whether or not the decor would entice them to make a reservation. The results showed that while, generally, female participants were nonplussed about color schemes, be they neutral or feminine, men were more demanding.
